Welcome back to Foodie Friday! This week, the recipes all have featured items from the local Chapel Hill Farmer’s Market. If you did not know, every Saturday from 9-12, there is a local farmer’s market in the parking lot of the University Mall facing Estes Dr. So hit up a Saturday team WOD and then grab some super fresh groceries from our local farmers!

In-season produce includes Radishes, Turnips, Kale, and Strawberries. So, I decided to incorporate these into my Friday dinner. Also at the farmer’s market is a variety of ground meats, yogurts, eggs, and cheeses. I grabbed some ground sirloin for burgers on the grill and greek yogurt for a dipping sauce from a local farmer who humanely raises all of his livestock (because everyone knows, happy animals taste better). I also grabbed a dozen Duck eggs while there, because ProTip: Duck eggs have more protein and iron than their more popular cousin the chicken egg. This means, Duck Eggs=More Gainz.

To make the week easier for scheduling, I picked up ground chicken, ground lamb, and extra ground beef to make a bunch of 4oz patties to throw on the grill for later in the week for quick grab and go meals. Easy lunch=1 premade pattie, salad greens, leftover roasted radishes & turnips. Warm up and mix together with your favorite vinaigrette and enjoy!
